8.0 Storing the UPS
8.1 Storage conditions
When you store the UPS, cover it and keep it upright in a cool, dry loca-
tion. Store the UPS with its battery fully-charged. Before storage, allow the
UPS to charge for at least 8 hours. Disconnect any accessories and cables
connected at the computer interface port, because these may unnecessarily
drain the battery charge.
8.2 Extended storage
■ To achieve optimal run time after extended storage, you should refresh
the UPS’s batteries every 6 months in environments where the ambient
temperature is –15 to +30°C (+5 to +86°F).
■ For extended storage in environments where the ambient temperature is
+30 to +45°C (+86 to +113°F), you should refresh the UPS’s batteries every
3 months.
